You were close to walking than running. Why insult Oatmeal cookies? They are actually healthier than most other cookies and very very tasty .

Pace of 10m47s per mile is not closer to walking than running. That translates to roughly 6m42s per kilometer pace, which is a decent running pace. Personally, I consider anything under 7 minutes per km decent.

If you fast walk, you can do 1km in 5-7 minutes. For running 3-5 minutes are enough. That's my opinion. I don't want to pretend to be running.

You are right. When I do this run and I'm not sucking I'm able to do it in less than 35 minutes, which is a better rate.
This run I was not doing well at all.

I don't think people on average can walk 1km in 5 minutes. Maybe if you power walk and you're on an athlete level. Maybe you are an athlete and I would love to see you record a walk that fast. That would be amazing!
As well, 3 minute per km is a very fast pace, even for a 4 mile (6.4km) run. That's near professional athlete level of pacing or a very dedicated, very well trained amateur...

You're right. I've been a cricketer and also a soccer player in my college, I need to see others from a different eye. When I was a kid, there was no road to my village and we had to walk beside a canal through 6 kms of mango and guava orchards and it never took me more than 40-45 minutes while walking slower to my normal pace.
That said now I don't run daily but whenever I do, I do 4 kms in around 13-15 minutes.
And btw I took it on @scoresby because he seemed to be insulting cookies ...haha
reply
not insulting the cookies, just feeling dehydrated and probably should have eaten something with electrolytes (do oatmeal cookies have electrolytes in them?).
reply
Haha. You gotta know they contain potassium, phosphorus and magnisium as the main content so they must have electrolytes
